There is a huge European bias on the early population of North America. European anthropologists have long held that North Americans came here in the last 12,000 years. They are wrong.
Multiple tribes record the ice sheet and the 'great flood' in their creation story. There is some really creditable evidence of 50,000 years ago in California Florida AND Peru. Several near 20,000 YO skeletons have been recovered in the Pacific Northwest.
It's fascinating stuff...And why I want a time machine...I'd not want a DeLorean in the style of Back to the Future though...Maybe a nice donut shop time machine...Somewhere I could travel, have a snack and a coffee at the same time. :)
Yeah. A donut shop would be perfect. Even Dr. Who's phone booth would be ok, I'm thinking, but a fresh coffee and a donut would be the best...
